Liverpool holds on for win against Southampton despite Adrian howler
Goalkeeper Adrian's Liverpool career is proving quite a roller coaster. The Spanish shot-stopper only joined the club on August 5 to provide cover for Alisson Becker but was immediately thrown in at the deep end after the Brazilian keeper sustained a calf injury in Liverpool's opening day Premier League victory over Norwich. In his second game for the Reds, Adrian proved to be a hero as Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup final on Wednesday. However, as the Liverpool players thronged around Adrian to congratulate him on his match-winning penalty save to thwart Tammy Abraham, a supporter ran from the stands to join in the celebrations and somehow managed to injure the goalkeeper's ankle in the melee. On Friday, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp revealed he had concerns that Adrian might not be fit for Saturday's Premier League game against Southampton and the Champions League winners might have to rely on either 35-year-old Andy Lonergan or 20-year-old Caoimhin Kelleher, who has just graduated from the club's academy. In the end, Adrian was fit enough to play against Southampton and the Spaniard had another eventful 90 minutes.
